New Stuff This Week… 5/26/14

Crowbar
Symmetry in Black
eOne
Been three years since a new Crowbar album, and you know, they’ve always been “ok” to me, mostly I’m not a fan of sludgey noisy stuff with shouty growls and whatever. Well, I’m older now, and well, it seems like Crowbar is too. Right out of the gate, catchy riffs, solid groove and melodic stuff. Actually reminds me of Down. So, Kirk did leave Down, mostly so he could concentrate on this band and it shows. So now we have three albums from the Down family out… the Down EP, this Crowbar and Eyehategod… and they’re all pretty good!

King 810
Proem EP
Roadrunner
Kinds of reminds me of a stonery Slipknot. Big meaty sound, appropriately pissed off sounding. Seems dark and heavy like, almost building up to something super heavy and brutal and death metal-like, but actually it stays a bit down tempo and that’s actually ok. Works out being pretty heavy and not all super fast and technical.

Timo Tolkki’s Avalon
Angels of the Apocalypse
Frontiers
Epic Metal Opera featuring mostly Fabio Lione on vocals with Zak Stevens on a track, Floor Jansen and Simone Simons and others. This is your sort of typical euro-epic power metal with big epic vocals.

Metsatoll
Karjajuht
Spinefarm
Folk metal from Estona! This is like, true folk metal with a flute and bagpipes and that stuff… but still all catchy metal!

Judas Priest
Marched Of The Damned “Single”
Epic Records
A new Priest song! Well, it’s no Painkiller, and actually starts off a little weak, but then some of the riffs come in and it seems like a decent hard rock type track.

Sabaton
Heroes
Nuclear Blast USA
Melodic folky power metal. A little like Blind Guardian, a little Iced Earth and a bit more of, oh, pick a folky metal band. There’s a bit of an epic feel with the keyboard stuff and singalong stuff. With the folky and epic powermetalness of it all, there’s still great shredding and enough thrashy stuff to get you all headbanging.

Dead Superstar
Searching For The Sun “Single”
BFX Records
Straightforward melodic hard rock type stuff. It’s pretty catchy with a pinch of a stoner metal vibe.

SERPENTINE PATH
Emanations (NA Promo)
Relapse Records
A sludgey down tempo death metal with a bit of a groove.

Blood Red Fog
On Death’s Wings
Saturnal Records
Some old school sounding black metal, cold sounding guitars, creepy screamed and yelled vocals. A bit scary actually… but decent solid black metal.

Hellspirit
Dawn Under Curse
Saturnal Records
A more traditional black metal album, evil and dark, yet melodic and full on metal with a pinch of thrash.

Eyes Of Mara
Akkadia
Imminence Records
A thrashy metalcore leaning more on the brutal-core side of things. Heavy, aggressive, in your face, maybe a bit like Black Dahlia Murder… technical chops, heavy riffs, catchy riffs and maybe a bassdrop/breakdown or two.

Serpent Ov Old
Antiquity Ov Old
Horror Pain Gore Death
Seems like any band that spells of “ov” just gets extra evil points right away. This is some pretty cool traditional sounding black metal. Harsh vocals, thos “cold” guitars, some decent melody, frenetic drumming… and some shreddy guitar too.

WE ARE THE DAMNED
Doomvirate
Lifeforce
Fast, heavy blackened death metal.

Killgasm
A Stab in the Heart of Christ
Moribund
Dark black evil black metal. Screaming, growling blast beats, cold droning riffs

HOLLOW
Mordrake
Self-Release (Asher Media)
Kind of an epic black metal type thing. Lots of quick guitar work, but probably more of a melodic black metal than old school stuff. A lot of prog elements as well. So yeah, cool proggy symphonic epic black metal.

New Stuff This Week… 5/19/14

Wovenwar
All Rise – Single
Metal Blade Records
This was to be a side-project of most of the members of As I Lay Dying… well, with Tim Lambesis being in trouble and stuff, this is a real “band” now. It’s the rest of the As I Lay Dying members with the singer from Oh, Sleeper. So, the song… metalcore, catchy, melodic, clean vox, decent guitar work and music and all that, but a little bit “emo” on the vocals I guess.

Mindcage
The One Constant “Single”
Kinematic Music
Booooo.. Just a single. Great proggy power metal though… Mostly power metal, but with a bit of an edge and enough prog to keep it interesting.

Mattersphere
Mattersphere
Omni Entertainment
Some hard rock / standard metal type stuff. Clean vocals, almost a heavier AOR with a bit of metal thrown in.

NECRODEATH
The 7 Deadly Sins
Scarlet Records
Thrashy black metal. Fast, in your face brutal metal!

Boris The Blade
The Human Hive
Siege of Amida
Brutal technical death metal. No other way to describe it. Good stuff.

MARTY FRIEDMAN
Inferno
Prosthetic
Marty’s first metal album released in the US in a long long time. And I’d say it’s about time! First two tracks are awesome thrashy shredding metal… the rest of the tracks have a little bit of collaboration on them with people such as Rodriego y Gabriela, Danko Jones, Alexi Laiho and a track co-written by Jason Becker

EYEHATEGOD
Eyehategod
Housecore
HEavy, grindy sludgy stoner sound… just like they’ve always had. The first track has a little bit of a punk vibe. But then it slides into what they’re known for.

CROBOT
Crobot EP
(Wind-Up)
Melodic Hard rockin’ metal with a hint of a 70’s and stoner vibe. Great clean vocals with range, cool catchy riffs, harmonies and cool melodic stuff all with a great solid rock going on. There’s a bit of a Clutch or Zeppelin thing going on, but maybe a Winery Dogs thing too.

BEARTOOTH
“Dead”/”Beaten In Lips”
(Red Bull)
A raw punk infused thrashy metal EP. While I’m not a fan of Punk, there’s just enough to still like… the metal-ness of this is pretty good in one track, and the other starts out pretty good, but gets a bit metal-core-ish

Mirzadeh
Desired Mystic Pride
Inverse
Melodic / symphonic black metal.

Henric Blomqvist & Friends
All Of Your Illusions
Secret Entertainment
a 70’s hard rock thing that sounds a bit like old Dio.

Landskap
I LP
Iron Bonehead
Two tracks, one 15 min, one is 19 min. Long drawn out doomy gothy stoner metal.

HYPERBOREAN
MYTHOS OF THE GREAT PESTILENCE
SELF RELEASED
Swedish black-ish metal. It’s a bit thrashy, technical, proggy and mostly death and black metal. But on the surface, I guess you’d call it black metal. Decent production, it’s all on brutal and a bit raw too (at least vocally). Pretty good stuff for being self-released.

Vainaja
Kadotetut
Svart Records
Dark doomy death metal. It’s all growly death vocals in Finnish. While the music is doomy, there’s a bit of a melodic feel which doesn’t make it seem tooooo depressing.

Insense
De:Evolution
Mas-Kina Recordings/Indie Recordings
This has a bit of a commercial metal sound going on at its base, but kind of taking over the top is a more metal (distorted guitar) layer

New Stuff This Week… 5/12/14

DEATH
Leprosy (2-Disc Reissue)
Relapse Records
Any excuse to play Death… Bonus stuff on this release are rehearsal versions of tracks.

MUSHROOMHEAD
The Righteous & The Butterfly
Megaforce
Well, below I mention Avatar being a bit simliar to Slipknot… well, this band doesn’t even need to be mentioned in the same breath… they had a history of bad blood which is apparently all cleared up.  And I guess if there IS any band that is similar to Slipknot in just about all ways, it’s this one.  They always have put out solid albums and live shows sticking mostly to their formula… This keeps the Mushroomhead machine going… not all brutal and heavy – they never really were, but they

SYLAR
To Whom It May Concern
Razor & Tie
It’s a bit metalcore, some Linkin Park, some hardcore and some thrashy metal.  I’m a little on the fence, because of the Linkin Park and metalcore parts…

THE LAST VEGAS
Sweet Salvation
Culvert
A cool catchy hard rock with a little nod to some hair metal sound.

DOWN
Down IV Part II
(Down/ADA)
Damn… This just reminds me of the first Down album… and it’s still a wow factor.  Amazing that they can capture this same magic after all these years.  Good stuff.

Avatar
Hail The Apocalypse
eOne Entertainment
These guys have the image that they’d be some mall-core band, but they just make catchy semi-brutal tracks… The closest thing I can think of that they remind me of is Slipknot… but not quite as serious.  There’s a little bit of a folk element, and melodic stuff, but catchy as all hell and fun to listen to.

Dio
Live From London Hammersmith Apollo 1993
Eagle Rock Entertainment
A live dio show from 21 years ago… this sort of setlist from this time is more or less a greatest hits played live too.  It actually sounds really live, not all “fixed” in post.   This is a previously unreleased show… also on DVD too…

Pet The Preacher
The Cave & The Sunlight
Napalm Records
A heavy stoner metal band with a loud grungy guitar sound, kind of sung with a bit of an edge – almost Down-like sound. A little bit of a Clutch vibe too.

Vallenfyre
Splinters
Century Media
Brutal old school death metal sound with a pinch of grind and black metal.

Miasmal
Cursed Redeemer
Century Media
Kind of an Entombed-like Death Metal thing with a bit of melody, these Gothenburg Swedes keep it brutal while still making it interesting.

Psychotic Gardening
Hymnosis
Self-Release  (asher media)
Death Metal with monster heavy riffage, a bit of a freight train gallop, classic cookie monster vocals.

Dominium
War Ritual
Horror Pain Gore Death
A bit of an old school black metal thing… so I’m sitting here, doing these reviews and stuff… but let this play in the backround while doing some other ‘net surfing… good stuff

Strafk
Phaseshifting
Wraith Productions
A bit of a disjointed sounding ambient “metal” thing.

HOLY SHIRE
Midgard
Bakerteam Records
Power metal with a bit of folksie stuff (flutey-keyboard stuff) There are some female vocals and symphonic type stuff too.  But then there’s some cool heavier thrashy stuff going on here and there too.

Noctooa
Adaptation
Pesanta Urfolk
Not quite sure this belongs in my inbox… not sure where it would even go.  strings, low pitch vocals, not even sure if this is rock!?

Hell (oregon)
Trilogy
Pesanta Urfolk
More post metal noise type stuff.  I’m not sure if I’ve liked anything on this label.

Blood and Sun
White Storms Fall
Pesanta Urfolk
Folky rock stuff.  see above… I supposed if the word “folk” is in the label name… that might say something.

Abbey ov Thelema
Liber DCLXVI
Wraith Productions
An interesting mix of symphonic metal, black metal, and some atmospheric stuff?   Encyclopaedia Metallum has them as Avant-Garde Black Metal.  So yeah it’s a bit all over the place, but all dark and evil.

Various Artists
Salud Mortales (Free Download)
Icarus Music (Online Metal Promo)
A 50+ song sampler of a metal radio show from Argentina.  Lots of bands, lots of tracks, haven’t even listened to it yet!  I’m sure it’s cool, cuz metal shows on the radio are cool. 😀

Hades Archer / Slaughtbbath
Circus of Abominations / Antichristos Thanatos – split LP
Iron Bonehead
Hades Archer is 5 tracks and Slaughtbbath is 2… both are fairly straightforward brutal black metal.  Slaughtbbath has 2 long songs and maybe digs a little deeper… but both are pretty decent.

Landskap
I LP
Iron Bonehead
70’s metal throwback stuff, Sabbath meets Blue Oyster Cult type stuff.

Ranger
Shock Skull 7″
Ektro
Raw thrashy stuff, over the top screamy vocals (almost like The Darkness)… but also there’s a bit of an edge and growl in parts too.
